The West Antarctic Rift System is home to more than 130 volcanoes, and the region’s receding ice sheet could slowly wake them ...

A groundbreaking study by the Birbal Sahni Institute of Palaeosciences (BSIP), an autonomous institute under the Department ...

The study reveals that while Deccan Volcanism caused significant disasters for fauna, its effects on flora were only ...

Most volcanism on Earth occurs beneath the oceans, but submarine volcanoes are difficult to study. Advances in seafloor monitoring have opened up an unprecedented view of eruptions on the seabed.

Melting ice sheets are often considered synonymous with climate change in the media, with evocative images of lone polar ...

The resulting tidal forces heated up its interior and thus powered the violent volcanism. Only Jupiter's moon Io, by far the most volcanically active body in the solar system, offers comparable ...

Beneath the West Antarctic ice sheet is a network of over a hundred volcanoes, located on an active volcanic fissure.

But almost simultaneously, intense volcanism covered a vast area of the Indian subcontinent with over 2 kilometers-thick lava flows. Scientists have long debated if the impact or the volcanic ...

Venus and Earth, although they've taken two dramatically different climatic roads, are considered sibling planets. They're ...

New research suggests that the Moon is significantly older than previously thought, with volcanic activity masking its true ...

I am an earth scientist, geologist, volcanologist, geochemist, petrologist and geoarcheologist. My research and teaching concern how magmas and volcanoes are formed, how they evolve and reveal the ...

New research shows that the reservoirs of magma that fuel the supervolcano 's wild outbursts seem to be shifting to the ...
